Bellinger Struggles in Yankees Victory Over Royals

NEW YORK, NY — Cody Bellinger went 0-for-3 with a walk and a strikeout in the New York Yankees’ 4-2 victory against the Kansas City Royals on April 16.

Despite the team’s win, Bellinger continues to face challenges at the plate, dropping his batting average to .180. In 50 at-bats this season, he has managed just one home run and eight runs batted in.

The Yankees, defending their home turf, relied on solid pitching and timely hitting to secure the win. However, Bellinger’s performance has raised concerns among fantasy baseball players, as he has not yet found his rhythm this season.

“We need him to be better,” Yankees manager Aaron Boone said in a post-game interview. “Cody has shown what he can do, and we believe he will come around soon.”

While Bellinger’s multi-position flexibility adds some value for managers in fantasy leagues, it may not be enough to keep him in starting lineups until he can produce more consistently.

This performance marks yet another struggle for Bellinger, who was once considered a top player in the league. As the season progresses, fans and analysts alike will be watching closely to see if he can turn things around.
